The annealing process effect on the activity of Pd/C, PdCu/C alloy, PdNi/C alloy, and the physical mixture of PdCu/C and PdNi/C alloys are studied. These Pd-based bimetallic catalysts are synthesized via a metal-salt reduction reaction. CV results indicate that the non-annealed Pd-based catalysts show similar surface structure and less electrochemical activity towards formic acid oxidation than the annealed samples in the following order: Pd/
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
